By using light-burnt forsterite,magnesite clinker and fused magnesite as main raw materials,phenolic resin as binder,magnesium-forsterite dry material was prepared,and the effect of addition of sodium tripolyphosphate on properties of the dry material was studied.The results showed that the addition of sodium tripolyphosphate could effectively improve the flexural strength and compressive strength of the dry material,and improve the slag resistance within a certain range.
